Tomas Soucek said that stopping a Crystal Palace ball boy from being crushed was a better feeling than scoring in Julen Lopetegui's first win in charge of West Ham.
Soucek's 67th-minute strike sparked wild celebrations in the away end, with an advertising board falling down under the weight of celebrating supporters and trapping the ball boy.
Soucek lifted up the board and Jarrod Bowen helped pull him to safety. The youngster, who looked shaken, was led away by a groundsman and assessed by medical staff, who ensured he was fine.
